The number will not increase so long as people keep dropping out of the work force.

This means, of course, that we must expand the H1-B program and extend amnesty to “undocumented” workers. All in the name of competitiveness.

Last month the Administration’s journalist cheerleaders were claiming that unemployment was shrinking in December, but the actual numbers didn’t pan out that way. The spending ourselves out of recession strategy is not working. Seems like we’re getting close to a time when even moderate citizens start clamoring for impeachment.

I am one of those uncounted. Left a part time job several months ago; my body is just getting too old to unload trucks. Doc said enough, so I just left. Been looking for another-there are really not too many to be had. When I do find one, I am not “qualified” because I was a stay at home mom for almost 20 years. The recent administration experience plus 3 years running hubbys company are not enough to get me in the door so I stay home.

That said, I am an optimist, and I see a silver lining here. As more and more folks have to get by on less and less, and survival becomes an issue (in a real sense, like finding food and shelter for your children) I see a definate return to that which matters most- God fearing family.

I spend my days at peace with my life, even though I am on the fast track to financial destruction without a job. I pray more, especially while kneading dough for homemade bread, among other things I am reaquainting myself with for when the time comes. I am hunkering down to prepare my family for whatever comes all the while watching Gods providence over my family. He IS in control. We have gotten too far from His will, and like the loving father of a spoiled, willful child, He is not sparing us the rod of correction. It will all be OK, but it will not be pleasant.

Anyone who believes it is only 10% is thick enough to believe that 0bama is not a dangerous communist.

Ever thought of selling your bread or catering meals for business meetings or even to office workers? That is how Paula Deen started out.

If the bottom tax bracket reverts to 15% at the end of 2010 many ‘’taxpayers’’ will see a 40-50% increase in their taxes,,,0’b won’t help them either.

For the past couple of years, many have propagandized for our complacency and pride, saying that Chinese consumerism would not rise.

China Ends U.S.’s Reign as Largest Auto Market (Update2)

[It’s from Bloomberg, so don’t post any content from it here.]

We should not have been complacent or prideful. We should have been doing real work with more than ourselves in mind.
